Swahili to be introduced to national curriculum of Somalia

[Lightshow]

The title speaks for itself, please share your opinions...

Personally I think we need to first secure the Somali language, because at this rate it might become extinct.

Our language is our identity, and to be so callous about its preservation is concerning.

I'm more concerned about Somalia becoming a federal state with the least power in EAC and losing its Sovereignty once EAC becomes one country

A Schengen zone if you will.

Get us out of the EAC. We can trade in English and remain on our own. We should prioritize self preservation of our land, identity, language, and culture.

Kind of puts into perspective the recent east African craze. From rappers name dropping "East African girls" to Kenyans, Ugandans and Tanzanians claiming traditional Somali things like Alindi and Dirac.

Also Omanis and Swahili speakers trying to claim Mogadishu. This agenda has been brewing for a while.

there has been a slow trend of displacing somalis from the map, what was once called the somali coast is now the "swahili coast"

anyway this really goes to show how mentally defeated those odays we have leading us are, zero cultural confidence. what the f*ck will you ever hope to gain by wasting paper on some useless babytalk language when anyone worth speaking to in EA already speaks english. most ugandans dont even speak swahili. i'd rather bring back italian than this

Walahi Somali dibata hesata. Must we worry about Ethiopians expanding or the fufu Bantu expansion into our territories.

This is just cozying up to the EAC and making trade a bit more easy. Most of the trade happening in EAC is not just english but also swahili.

A somali knowing swahili and thus making it ever so slightly to do deals in tanzania is not a bad thing.

As for the omanis they can just be laughed at. And people claiming our stuff? The facts are on our side. Why care changing a bigots mind?

Somalis have never spoken Swahili, nor were we connected to its inception.
We have our own historical Sultanates that were not only autonomous but also powerful regional entities.
I fear these recent developments are merely a prelude to something more sinister. They seem far from natural, and I suspect the driving forces behind them possess very deep pockets.

There was a time The Somali didn’t speak english either, or arabic that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t if it helps.

I’m mainly for promoting it as a 3rd language for helping these traders when they deal with the EAC.

“Somalia wears many different hats,” Mohamud said at the summit in the Somali capital, Mogadishu. He explained that Somalia adopted Arabic when it joined the Arab League in 1974, teaches languages such as English and would now introduce Swahili after its membership in the East African Community (EAC).

Remember if you see a somali politician say stuff that seems crazy to you try to think who are they selling the idea to and for what purposes:

Somalia’s education minister, Farah Sheikh Abdulkadir, said: “We want to see Swahili become a language of communication, trade and learning – even replacing English during our next conference.”

^Is this their objective stance or a sales pitch? Who are they speaking to?

 

[Radical]

I welcome it. As someone who speaks. Swahili is a beautiful language

Came across these two on two seperate occassions and the Ottoman Map on those Geopolitical History AI Voice Cover Channels.

There is most definitely an agenda-but the question is walaal how do we completely reverse this, since even documentation is denied?

The agenda for oman is relevance. A lot of these non-africans (even africans at times) view contact as subjugation.

Whenever these maps are posted somalis are under it countering. I doubt it will go anywhere sxb:
